Customer Reviews of The Ice Rink
Fun to see Campbell stretch I had heard of this film a while ago. When I finally saw it, I was mildly surprised. I enjoyed the light comic story as well as seeing Bruce Campbell do something different. I recommend this film to fans and non-fans alike.
cute little comedy
While not the most elaborated story we liked this movie. Its a light entertaining film and it never pretends to be more than just a little comedy. Even though the director uses mostly only cliches for the characters, the movie is consequent in its style. Slapstick with a very cool French tone and quite funny.
Oh, yes -the story: a film crew uses an ice hockey game as the backdrop for a love story. 95% of the movie is filmed on location - the ice rink. Most of the time, it shows the film crew and the Lithuanian ice hockey players and the American Hollywood star and the ice rink manager who dreams of his famous past as ice-dancer - slipping and sliding.
I just didn't "get" it
Maybe it's because I'm not French. I don't know. But I definitely didn't think this was Bruce's best work by a long shot. As a huge Bruce Campbell fan, I had been awaiting this release for a long time. The result was a movie that didn't live up to my expectations. It had its moments, but overall I was dissapointed. This is the kind of movie I would have loved to watch in my college French class, though.
